The Threshing Floor
What happens when the sacred becomes ordinary? This powerful exploration of 1 Chronicles 13 takes us to a threshing floor where tragedy struck—not because of malice, but because of familiarity. When Uzzah reached out to steady the Ark of God, he lost his life in an instant. The lesson cuts deep: he had grown so accustomed to the presence of God that it had become common to him. We discover that this wasn't just any threshing floor—it was Mount Moriah, the very place where Abraham offered Isaac, where God provided a ram in the thicket, and where Solomon would later build the temple. This sacred ground, soaked in redemptive history, witnessed both judgment and mercy. The challenge for us today is profound: Are we treating our encounters with God as routine? Have our prayer closets become just rooms? Has Sunday worship become just what we do? When we allow God to become common in our lives, we risk missing the supernatural moments He's orchestrating. The threshing floor reminds us that every breath, every answered prayer, every moment of His presence is a gift worth remembering. We're called to build spiritual markers in our hearts—those moments when God showed up undeniably—and return to them often, keeping our faith fresh and our gratitude alive.
